Trouble Ahead.

When the appetite fails, and sleep grows
restless and unrefreshing, there is trouble
crave food. the nervous system, when vigorous
and tranquil, gives its possessor NO uneasiness
at night. A tonic, to be effective, should not
be mere appetizer, nor are the nerves to be
strengthened and soothed by the anaided ac-
ton of sedative or narcotic. What is re-
quired is medicine which invsgorates the
stomach, and promotes assimilation of food
BY the system, by which means the nervous
system, as well as other parts Of the physical
organism, are strengthened. These are the
effect of Hostetter's Stomach BiEters, medi-
cine whose reputation is founded firmly in
public confidence, and which phssicians COM
mend for its tonic, anti-bilious and other
properties, It is used with the best results in
fever and ague, rheumatism kidney and
other maladies.

A Tale Of the Conquest Of Msxier,

BY LEW WALLACE. 600 Pages, $3.50.
We do not hesitate to say that the .Fair
God" is one of the most powerful historical
novels we have ever read. The scene where
in the sunrise Montezuma reads his fate, tho
dance scene, and the entry of the Spaniards
to the capital, are drawn in style Of which
we think few living writer's capable, and the
battles are HOmeric in their grandeur-Lox-
don Afhe,s@uns.
In all the accessories to complete historical
romance, the author has perfected himself
down to minutest details. Every feature of
Aztec civilization necessary to render his task
complete has been carefully studded Hand
grandly set forth.--Nec York Times.
Take the poems of Ossian, the Tales of tho
Thousand aud One Nights, the novels Of
Kingsley and Bulwer, the historical romances
of Scott, with the songs of Byron and Moore,
blend them all in one, and the reader may form
some idea of this really great novel; Chicago

This Great State.

Claiborne has very large corn
crop, and the Guardian predicts that
thirty cents a bushel will be a big
price.
Since its organization, a few years
ago, the jute factory in New Or
leans has paid out nearly OF dollars
for labor.
The Guardian says Mr.. B. F.
Thomas, of Claiborne, parish has
raised in the past three years Is
head of mules and horses, which
did not cost him S25 a head. Con-
siderable attention is given to the
raising of horses and mules in Clai-
borne parish.
Colfax Chronicle: "There is great
demand in Europe for white oak
slaves to be used in making wine
barrels, and agents in this State are
offering 800 per 1000 for them. AS
white oak is abundant in this Sec
ton here is an opportunity for en-
terprising people to do a STAYING
business without great labor"
New Orleans Chronicle: "That
Orleaus is destined to become a great
manufacturing city is the verdict OF
every intelligent stranger that comes
here. The labor to be had is plenti
full and more than usually intelli
gent, living is cheap, raw materials
of all kinds abound, and the great
Central American markets are al
most at her very doors. There are
hundreds Of big booms there await
ing the enterprising capitalist"
It is estimated that every Mard
Gras celebration in this city costs
upwards Of $4,000. Suppose that
the celebrations were to be dispens
ed with and $4,000 devoted to the
esta blishment of a factory of some
kind each year. Which would pay
best in the end IN. o. Chronicle
The factory would certainly sspaJ
best in the end" Try factory and
take rest-a long rest-on your
Mardi Gras celebrations. Anyhow
give the factory a trial.
